Java InputStream encoding/charset
- by Tobbe
Running the following (example) code
import java.io.*;
public class test {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
byte[] buf = {-27};
InputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(buf);
BufferedReader r = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is, "ISO-8859-1"));
String s = r.readLine();
System.out.println("test.java:9 [byte] (char)" + (char)s.getBytes()[0] + " (int)" + (int)s.getBytes()[0]);
System.out.println("test.java:10 [char] (char)" + (char)s.charAt(0) + " (int)" + (int)s.charAt(0));
System.out.println("test.java:11 string below");
System.out.println(s);
System.out.println("test.java:13 string above");
}
}
gives me this output
test.java:9 [byte] (char)? (int)63
test.java:10 [char] (char)? (int)229
test.java:11 string below
?
test.java:13 string above
How do I retain the correct byte value (-27) in the line-9 printout? And consequently receive the expected output of the System.out.println(s) command (å).
